The HBase team is happy to announce the immediate availability of HBase 1.2.1.
Apache HBase is an open-source, distributed, versioned, non-relational database.
Apache HBase gives you low latency random access to billions of rows with
millions of columns atop non-specialized hardware. To learn more about HBase,
see https://hbase.apache.org/.
HBase 1.2.1 is the first maintenance release in the HBase 1.2.z line,
continuing on the theme of bringing a stable, reliable database to the
Hadoop and NoSQL communities. This release includes 27 resolved issues
since the 1.2.0 release.
Notable fixes include:
* [HBASE-15441] - Fix WAL splitting when region has moved multiple times
* [HBASE-15219] - Canary tool does not return non-zero exit code when
one of regions is in stuck state
* [HBASE-15325] - ResultScanner allowing partial result will miss the
rest of the row if the region is moved between two
rpc requests
* [HBASE-15378] - Scanner cannot handle heartbeat message with no
results
